From the stables of Ayo Van Elmar, here is the gods & dolls spring/summer 2015 collection.
The collection is packed with chic, unconventional and awesome designs aimed for the everyday woman who loves to look simple yet stylish.
There is a narrative plot to this collection, the creative director, Ayo Elizabeth Olaogun writes: ‘Smitten by an Antwerpic daze, he is caught in a trance that unveils his lady as a goddess. He desires to worship her indisputable glamour, elegance and beauty. She lifts him into another world, a playful doll he seeks to join and yet elusive to his grasp.
‘Her ways remain mysterious to him. Is she real or surreal? She mesmerizes him with her enigmatic personality, which he cannot read. He dreams of her as a doll, he dreams of her as a goddess, he rolls in a bubble of adoration for her, but yet he struggles within. He is conscious of her strengths, that she is the pillar upon which the entirety of his being relies.’
Looking all shades of stunning, we just cannot stop loving the afro-centric elegance with the simple silhouette; designers surely lavished the designs with modern day edge.
